API 614, CH. 3 FOR PETRO-CHEMICAL PLANT IN CHINA

A new project to lubricate the bearings of High Pressure pump and Driver is being designed for the Chinesse Company Sinopec. In this case, an API 614, chapter 1 & 3 with a flow rate for ISO VG 32 oil, 50 lts/min, is needed. The lube oil system include the following characteristics:

- Oil reservoir made of AISI 304, designed in accordance to the definition of the levels included in API 614 (amplianced to chapter 2, to provide more safety).

You can link directly with the datasheets of the components.

- Weld pad level gage, type UWR.

- Level transmitter, differential pressure type, 2" ANSI flanged.

- Bimetallic Thermometers, heavy duty series, stainless steel.

- Globe valves, CFM8 body, AISI 316 trim, ANSI 150 lbs.

- Pressure gauges, 0-16 kg/cm2, 4 1/2" dial diam.

- Excess pressure valve / relief valve, 1" ANSI 150 lbs.

- Oil-Water cooler, constructed according with TEMA C, ASME VIII, Div. 1.

- Duplex oil Filter, ASME VIII, Div 1, 20 microns of filtration grade.

- Differential pressure gauge, 0-2.5 kg/cm2 to filter clogging indication.

- Pressure transmitter, with digital indicator.

- Main lube oil pump, screw type, shaft-driven.

Nowadays the system is still manufacturing in RIVI work-shop, and it will be delivered the next January.
